About WhisperClip
WhisperClip is a free, open-source macOS menu-bar app for privacy-first voice-to-text that transcribes speech locally using WhisperKit (supporting 100 languages) and instantly copies the result to the clipboard or auto-pastes it into the active application via a global hotkey. It optionally pipes transcribed text through a local LLM (Gemma, Llama, Qwen, Mistral, etc.) for grammar correction, email formatting, translation, or custom text workflows — all without any data leaving the device. There are no subscriptions, ads, or premium tiers; it is free forever.
